Hi again Stan,

From the information I have from the census records, Frederick Buss was born about November 1844. I noticed that the information on this website has May 29, 1879 for his headstone too. I personally haven't seen his headstone. Fred's obit stated that he leaves two sons, Charles and Ernest, living in Longwood. According to the census, Charles was born 1872, and Ernest was born 1874, 7 and 5 years older than their father.

I have no other proof than the census.
